Remove the rubber below the window at the top of the door and use a metal coat hanger with a hook like bend. Or just bend the door out at the top, slide your arm down in and open the door and bend it back in again.

should still be able to access the locking mech with the coat hanger, thats how i popped mine. alternatively your windscreen is normally covered by insurance!

Yeah, glass is probably the best way. £80 excess, and doesn't affect your NCB.
If you have deadlocks however, you still won't be able to open the door from the inside.

meh removed, but most people probably know that anyway.
Surely, if the car won't unlock, there is only 2 reasons?
The key fob battery is dead?
The car battery is dead?
